Apidae
The Apidae are a large family of bees, comprising the common honey bees, stingless bees (also used for honey production), carpenter bees, orchid bees, cuckoo bees, bumblebees, and various other less well-known tribes and groups. 〔(BugGuide.Net: the Family Apidae (of bees) ) . accessed 6.23.2013〕 Many are valuable pollinators in natural habitats and for agricultural crops. 〔(Charles D. (2000) ''The bees of the world''. The Johns Hopkins University Press. Baltimore, Londres. ISBN 0-8018-6133-0 )〕
==Taxonomy==
The family Apidae presently includes all the genera previously classified in the families Anthophoridae and Ctenoplectridae. Most of these are solitary species, though a few are also cleptoparasites. 〔(Christopher, Raw, Anthony (1999) ''Bees of the world''. Cassell Illustrated. ISBN 0-8160-5712-5 )〕
The four groups that were subfamilies in the old family Apidae are presently ranked as tribes within the subfamily Apinae. This trend has been taken to its extreme in a few recent classifications that place all the existing bee families together under the name "Apidae" (or, alternatively, the non-Linnaean clade "Anthophila"), but this is not a widely accepted practice.
